Anyone have a specific tournament they are cursed in or run well in?

Just a bit of fun. Is there any tournament you consistantly play that it doesn't matter what you do you can't do well in? Doesn't have to be online. For me it's any Unibet tournament with the words 'UK Tour' in. I can be behind, ahead, dominating, 99.98% fave and just can't seem to win the hand when it matters. Bubbled quite a few 100 tickets and a couple of main event seats too.

In live events it's any event that takes place in Sheffield. I like the place but it's cursed for me lol.

On the flip side the 10-x bounty Omaha at 7pm has been a gold mine for me. Couple weeks ago before a short break I won it twice and made top 5 on three other days in the same week. Shame I haven't had time to play it recently!

UnibetOpens 😏 no sample obv. Played in London last year and 4b allin pre with AQo vs an aggro brit and he snapped me off. Thought I was buried, but pretty much alive vs JJ. Flop Qxx ... river J of course :speechless: was a big-allin and wouldve left the guy crippled had he lost. when i got home turned on the FT stream the very guy binking the 2outer resuck was on the final table 3 or 4-handed and in that very moment 3-outering a guy with A8s vs AKo and went on to win the thing. Must be nice

Online definitely the 25€ Evening Turbo. The very first time i played it, it would still start when only 2 players regged so i think it had a 250€ overlay or at least 200 dont know what the GTD was at that time. Villain went allin first hand i called of with T4s and binked. Ever since then i usually bust on the bubble or 1-2places before that when i go deep and i am def. in the red in that one despite that first lucky bink 

rungood: lately the Daily50 qualifier. Only to run like aids in the daily50. but at least im running waay above EV in the qualifier :laugh:

Ja, the new 1k gtd 4€ rebuy ,, i didnt even came close to rewards. But the next time I'll try it with even more passion :D
Omaha 1€ rebuy if I'm left with 400 chips on the final table I'll absolutely win it at the end :D

Definitely live SNG's in casino's. In EVERY single one I played I busted with a two-outer on the turn. Really incredible! One example: I remember one time I called a shove on a 996 board with AA and my opponent with QQ hit his miracle Q on the turn.

 

Of course I only played one so far, but still... It hurts :teardrop:

Apart from the UK Tour sats they've all been pretty horrible for the last three months.

Special mentions to the Unibet Open sats though as I'm running so ridiculously horribly in them that the riggies would use my hand history as an example of how it's all fixed. I also seem to be on the wrong end of a lot of ridiculous coolers in the €10 deepstack, usually just off the money.

Unibet Open Copenhagen last year. Easily the biggest tourney I've ever played. Nice easy table (apart from one good Dutch pro) and I'm chipping up nicely. Then I run kings into aces on level three and out I go before the dinner break. The guy I stack off to goes on to finish 3rd in his first ever live tourney while I have a nice weekend break in Denmark.

 

Stupid game.
